We have several plants which arrived with sad, yellowing lower leaves a couple of months ago. We think they may have been overwatered before making the journey over from the Netherlands. They have been sat under our grow lights and are all now producing happy new growth. We have left the lower growth on so that they can get as much energy back from those leaves as possible. These plants need a good trim or would be suitable as a propagation project if you wanted to cut them back completely.
6 plants available, see last two photos for examples.

A highly sought after and uncommon plant which has recently risen in popularity, The Syngonium Erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow' is characterised by its bright red/burgundy undersides which are complimented by the deep green on top of the leaf.
The Syngonium has many names: Arrowhead Vine, Goosefoot Plant, African Evergreen Butterfly plant and American Evergreen. Don't be discouraged by their vibrant, tropical appearance - they are surprisingly easy to care for!
A lot of people are unaware that the Syngonium is actually a vining houseplant and will start to grow upwards if you supply it with a pole or trellis, alternatively you can leave it to trail, you can prune it back to maintain a bushy appearance.
Check out the other Syngonium we have available.
A low maintenance plant which is the perfect piece of green relief for your indoor space.
Care:
Light: Bright, indirect sunlight will produce the biggest leaves but also really show off the plants bold, varying colours.
Water: During growing season water regularly, wait until the soil is dry before watering again. For best results water from underneath with the use of a saucer to reduce the chance of root rot.
Food: As the plant can keep growing all year round, feed it lightly once a month yearly as long as it is growing.
Humidity: These plants thrive in a high humidity situation, they will tolerate household humidity but a decreased humidity will cause brown, crispy leaves.
